It's half term for the kids this week, I have today off and Friday off, wondrous thoughts of bear creations running through my head - a WHOLE day to create, but I just can't!!     bear_rolleyes

I drew a new pattern, cut out, started sewing, stuffed, burst a seam, and threw in bin.......  bear_wacko

I'm going to start another in a moment......  bear_whistle

I'm soooo annoyed, I've got all day, when usually I work every day, and I've done NOTHING constructive whatsoever!!   It's now 4:20pm, there's an evening meal to cook yet........  bear_noexpression    :doh:

I need to get my creative juices flowing, how do you guys do that when they've run dry??    :hug:

Hi Clare,  bear_flower
Oooooh!  This is an easy question.  I go to my favorite antique mall!!   bear_wub They have a deli and coffee shop there too so I'll go for lunch or enjoy a latte and then browse the aisles.  It's a great way to clear the cobwebs and get those creative juices flowing.  Sometimes you just need to get out and look at four walls besides your own!   bear_original

Warmest bear hugs,  :hug:

Don't worry Clare it is Monday and cold and miserable, enough to dampen any creative ideas. I've just ordered some more supplies, that helps. Hang in there! :hug:

Poor Clare ,I have been there before.
I have a collection of antique childrens books which I look through and somehow get inspired,or I clean out my fabric and usually find something that sparks an idea or I look at bears on ebay etc.
I think I fancy Aletas remedey better though!
